Just recently moved to Ubuntu from MS platforms.
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and using VMware 9.0.2 for various purposes.
A few days ago, my VMware workstation started to crash my system every time I start it after resume (I mean - Ubuntu is suspended and then resumed).
Not sure, but I think it started after one of the system updates i made a few day ago (I think there was a kernel update).

The main reason for Causing this problem is python 3 version. Ubuntu 12.10 has latest python 3 but VMware work station build requires python 2 for running. This is common Bug as also mentioned in ubuntu 12.10 Bugs. Wait till it be fixed.
Also, I suggest you to install 64bit version of Ubuntu.
